Re: Changed Lazy Dog to How To Build F-Spot

While trying to build f-spot, I get the following error:

A naive attempt to install glib:

According to Synaptic, there is a package called libg++, so let's try that:

I installed both of the packages listed above, to no avail.  I assume I should install some development package of glib (libg?), but I don't know which one(s).  Thanks again for the help.  To prevent this problem in the future, is it possible for 
configure.sh to be more specific in which package is missing?
